Upgrading the Embedded Software
To upgrade the Broadband Source embedded software, you will need to
obtain the upgrade files from EXFO’s Technical Support Group. You will
also need a null-modem cable.
To upgrade the embedded software:
1. Turn off the Broadband Source.
2. Connect a null-modem cable to the Broadband Source RS-232 port and
to an unused serial communication port on your computer.
3. On your computer’s hard disk, create a folder named “Test” (C:\Test).
4. Unzip or copy the upgrade files into the newly created folder.
5. If the software upgrade is performed under Windows 98, you must
restart your computer in DOS mode before starting the upgrade
program. In other cases, simply exit to DOS.
